Analysis

Bargain bin

Yancoal Australia Ltd is priced cheaply, and that invites the natural question of why, since the underlying business scores below average.

On valuation, the picture is fair. The owner-earnings multiple stands at 21.3×; owner earnings: the cash an owner could take out each year.
